Know your Genre: EARLY GABBER | History of Hardcore [Documentary]
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 มิ.ย. 2024
- In this documentary, I summarize the history of Hardcore music, tracing its roots from the 80s to its peak in the 90s. I explore the evolution of Hardcore music and shed light on the culture of Gabbers. My goal is to dispel stereotypes and clarify terms, making accuracy a priority in this video. Extensive research and collaboration with producers were involved in the making of this documentary.
DISCLAIMER:
The categorization of new genres and styles is one of many possibilities. It was important for me to distinguish within this extensive genre, ranging from the 90s to the modern production of Early.
Let's discuss in the comments!

Great video. Thx for making our history 🙏❤️
Finest collection.
18:25 - Two Terrorists - Welcome To Jurassick Park (Dj Paul Mix)
Great music that's why. I'm 56 and still loving it.
Great piece!😊
Not sure if the creator is also from the Netherlands or not, so I'll do this in English just in case. I came back to this video a second time, and that's rare for me. I really appreciate the video that you've put together here. You've really done your research! High quality content. Informative for outsiders, and a feel-good video for those of us who lived through it all and now are in our 40's. This video made me feel proud again of being a gabber. My past has shaped me as a person, and I consider myself to be gabber till the day I die. The ink proves this. It was the best of times, and this was largely because of the people themselves in this magical pre-internet era. Now I'll stop rambling, because I'm nearing becoming emotional about it all. To all the people that I ever met, or befriended, or bumped into at a party, or had insanely funny talks with, and those who I shared my xtc's with, and to those who I had mistaken for another person, and to those that checked if I was doing Ok and those who helped me hydrate, I want to say to all of you, Thank you! And I miss you all, and I love you all to the bone. I will carry every single one of you in my heart for ever.
Anyways, I came back here to compliment the video and give my respects en appreciations to the creator, and I end up rambling, again. But seriously, you've gained an honest fan of your content in me. I'm going to share it with my old gappies from back in the day. Peace!
Thanks mate!
I'm glad to hear that.
I'm from germany by the way.
@@Mindprinter 40s lol you were young
@@cussco most of us were young
@dawatcherz yes true but only in 40s now was my point, I am only jealous
Well said, one big family. Still, at 41 doing better than many kidz at 5am ... stay hydrated 🥵 and keep the raves alive 🥰
I have no idea how this video came in my YT recommendations but heck I went and watch it.
I'm not a techno hardcore or any other styles guy.
Though the first time I heard about Gabber was in 1995, I was doing my national army service in France and there was this guy coming from the north of France, bald head, wearing tracksuits (when we were off our uniforms of course) that was into that music. At the time, I've heard about hardcore, heard about the Thunderdome compilations. One day we were talking and he told me that he was into Gabber and I was like what's that? he just said it's proper hardcore and put the headphones of his walkman on my head. Wow, never heard anything like it before. He told me it was way above 200BPM.
It's not my thing but it was interesting to discover something totally unknown at the time (pre-internet).
I've always liked to discover new music.
I found myself randomly gurning while watching this. I'm 52 now, I was lucky to be in my prime during the peak of the UK Rave scene. No regerts 8) PLUR x
Damn man you said PLUR. Haven't heard that in so damn long.
I haven't heard the term plur since 2002. Lol. Damn that takes me back
56 over here ,,Elementenstraat toen elke zaterdag hehe
@@BeatenAtv 🥰🤣 Peace, Love, Unity and Respect... a mantra that needs a comeback! ☮🕊💌🤟🌍💌🎶
From NE England and loved rave since 89 in all its genres bar trance and jungle. It’s makina all the way here now. Check new monkey and rave to the grave out.
First Energiehal in 1994, still here in 2024, Loving it al! from hard house to all the early style's they come up with nowadays. Nice to see the Dutch scene in a nutshell. Hardcore will never die!
Correct : You cannot kill, what doesn't die.
Energiehal was amazing. Every city had its venue's and they where the best in that era. Energiehal-Rotterdam, Sporthallen Zuid- Amsterdam, Hemkade-Zaandam, Peppermill-Heerlen, Brabanthallen-Den Bosch and so on and on and on. Hardcore will never Die🎵👊
Cool video. I remember my dad gave me a cassette of terrordrome when I was 9. Been a gabber ever since❤
im 15 right now, but i absolutely love early gabber, dnb, jungle and hardcore, and ive always been obsessed with the hardcore
rave scene back then, this video is very informational, and definitely has awesome background music. 🔥
I bought Rotterdam Subway from the 99¢ bin at Music Liberated in DC. I loved it and couldn't get anyone in our scene onboard. Was determined to go to Rotterdam and ended up at a club called Night Town in 96. It was the strangest thing. I was a bald kid in rave gear going mad, surrounded by a bunch of very normal looking people sipping beers, seemingly numb to the hardest music I'd ever heard. Amazing how the whole city was onboard to hear hardcore, not just the Gabbers.
NIght town was for the clubbers, we always went to Parkzicht, that was the place to be, or the afterparties scattered in Rotterdam.
@@_R_o_n_a_l_d_ I wish I had known that at the time. It was just a 2 day stop on a 6 week wild eurail trip for me.
I also found it amusing that 3 guys in front of me wearing very expensive leather jackets and outfits in front of me were turned away. I just stood there in my homemade elephant pants and windbreaker, looking at the bouncer like, "eh?" And he smiled and let me in, probably aware I was out of place. Or maybe he thought I had some good shit in my pockets?
Well Night Town was a very cool place. Upstairs for the groovy mellow vibes downstairs for the harder styles but more like trance and techno. Very good vibes and atmosphere in Night Town. Amazing that you made it in, they had a very strict dress code and door police.
"Which is your favorite style?" - YESSSSSS!!!! What a great video!
Parkzicht Rotterdam 1991 is where it all started for me. And after that it went crazy. Awesome vid gab. Glad you honour the roots of hardcore and captured styles, culture and musical evolution so well. Keep up the great work!
Same here .
Parkzicht, the start of all the harder styles.
Hardcore = my life and it always will be!!! Greetz from an dutch gabber
🤘🏻💀🤘🏻
It never dies bro. I'm 46 and still listen to it.
I was too young to be let into any clubs during the 90's, but I owned plenty of hardcore CD's and listened to them until they broke (like Happy Hardcore, Thunderdome, Rave Massacre etc.)
Later as an adult, I was really happy to see that the scene was still alive and beating and I managed to get out and dance to some contemporary dj's and producers I really like.
And it's true what they say: gabbers are like family. You show up dressed however you like, everyone is upbeat and positive, nobody is judgemental of clothes, looks, gender or anything. And the most important thing for me: people leave politics at the door.
Other "scenes" I've visited always got destroyed by politics and activists.
i respect the gabber scene but there was however a time when the scene got a bad reputation concerning politics, at least for outsiders
Man this is super cool vid, playin' hardcore since 2007, defo sharing on socials. Well done!
Had to take several breaks watching this to just deal with the emotions of how awesome this is - thanks
Awesome time! no telephones, no social media, just party and true friendships
You wrote drugs wrong.
Damn! That was refreshing AF! Thx a ton for this little chest of gold❤
Great informational Gabber content! Keep going with this type of content :)
Next vid in progress
Cool srb pfp
Wicked video, I am glad I was there from the start, no regrets, Keep it HARDCORE!! 👊
This video was so damn interesting. I don't know much about this style, but this was nostalgic as hell to watch as a kid of the 90s.
Super awesome thank you, it’s always good to know where the roots come from! Bigup!
Omg this video is pure love ❤ I really love all Subgenres of Hardcore/Gabber. This made my heart skip a beat! 💓💓 Thank you so much!
Sincerely a german gabber :)
Freut mich zu hören :)
Very good vid. I‘m only 18 tho gabber is my form of music. I hesitate a bit to call myself a gabber, but early is just my passion. U sure backward steps haven’t been used back in the day? Cause they are shown and mentioned in hardcore never dies. Much love from germany
Yes backward hakken definitely was a thing in the 90s.
I'm a Belgian gabber aged 42. And yes, the backwards hakken is something we already did in the nineties
Yes yes here we go!! ❤core 4 ever!! Eens een gabber altijd een gabber! Gabbervirus
Interesting
But really the "Hoeppi Hakken" Style like I do in the video?
Some hakk with a moderate step to the back, but not this aggressive backwards hakken.
Didn't saw that aggressive movement at Early Parties.
Usually for Uptempo, Mainstyle and Industrial. @@Catch_me_if_you_can_666
@@Mindprinter Maybe the backwards hakken wasn't done yet in the very earliest years of Hardcore (when people still dressed normal and weren't bald yet...'93-'94). But I've been going to Hardcore events since 1997 (and I still go to them events !!!) and back then the backwards hakken was already established in the scene toghetter with every possible frontstep variaties you see nowadays. And I mean FULL ON backwards hakken, not some softer form ! The only thing that was added to the more modern way of hakken are those silly things like them jumps and fly kicks and the handclapping stuff. Clapping our hands behind the back and underneath the legs wasn't a thing we did back than. Since '95-'97 when Hardcore became more popular and everybody started shaving their heads and started wearing Australian tracksuits and bomber jacks...the backwards hakken was already going on.
Yes, this was my youth and I still love the music and got a lovely record collection still from this time with several thousands of Vinyl's and CD's
Such a refreshing video, a fully immersive musical experience. As a non-native english speaker, I am already used to reading subtitles
Metal : has so many sub-genres
Techno : hold my ecstasy
Jokes on you, I listen both of that shit😂
@@RolandTR909 they have a lot more in common than people think ^^
@@eucalyptux true!
I been hooked up in Hardstyle since 2008 and now im more into hardcore and rawstyle, it never gets old 💯
What an absolutely amazingly put together video. I really enjoyed this :) I did dabble with some gabber as a young teen, but I'm a massive techno head. 140-155 BPM preferred range. I've never understood how people can dance to 600BPM music all night. People like it and people make it, this is what I love about music, the diversity in music right now is fun to keep an eye on.
This is great to see where it all comes from, I'm 35 and Gabber for 15-20 years now, I was too young for the good raves, nowadays a good festival is cool, but when I see the pics and videos from late 90's, daaaamn that looked like a lot more fun! Thank you for the video, some great tunes and new genres that I didn't know about
So happy this showed up in my feed. Great vid!
I’d love someone to get a tracklist of all these choons! Such amazing bangers in there, i need em!
My first CD i bought was Thunderdome and Terrordome ✌
From my heart, thank you for this video!! I love your choice of iconic tracks from the past (my past), the informative background information, and the way you tell the story from the beginning right up to today.
[Also, at about 05:00 my mind was completely blown to discover that 'gabber' means the same in Nederlands as 'cobber' means in Australian English!]
Hardcore to the bone...PLUR from Australia
I’ve been collecting vinyl since ‘86 and went to tons of raves, underground & warehouse parties during ‘91-‘97. It’s great to watch a music info video by someone who knows what they’re talking about… well informed. Cheers!
Nostalgia 2.0, fantastic, tnx! Hardcore never dies!
Ive whatched many documentarys about Techno , EDM , Hardcore , Trance , Hardstyle , House . your content is close to the reality , thanks for sharing .
Blümchen - herz an herz ist much better hehe and you miss the german Mega Man intro music from the TV Cartoons ...
hmm no breakcore
Thanks
I'm listening Harder Styles since 2012
Visited over 100 festivals, events and uncountable club nights with Hard Dance Music and Techno.
Now I want to give the community something back with my own experiences through partying, listening and producing this music.
I'm into Hakken deep down and got a passion for it.
And breakcore, I'm not that into it.
I would say it's just Hardcore with breakbeats. Like some crossbreed stuff. But maybe this a good genre for a "Diverse and Unknown Hardcore Genre" video ;)
We will see. Be patient
Wow. Thanks Mindprinter👏
The quality and in-depth information truly stands out. Ticking off all the major milestones and tracks of the era for me. Capturing the vibe. As a child in the Netherlands I observed (lol) the wave of early Harcore and Gabber Mania and it brings back vivid memories.
It was quite a scene to witness, as a 10~12 year old, almost surreal at times! For me a beautiful exciting time for a child growing up with these shaved guys and girls in australian track suits in the neighborhood and as older brothers, sisters etc 😂
🥂 Prettig weekend gabberts en liefhebbers
Loved this vid, I was raving during 90s till early 2000s so was familiar with 1 third of what you covered. All my kids nearly grown now so good to see some of the newer styles if I feel like dusting off the pumas, or trying out some nike airs. Sydney has some good hardstyle events still from what I see in YT
I'm from '81 ,coming out Belgium,I lived ,eat,slept with early hardcore,it's heartwarming that we see a kinda comeback.But the truth is:it will never be the same like back in the days ,what a time that was.i went from early hardcore to hard techno after a while cause of the commercial side off hardcore that was coming up.This video is truly amazing ,thanks for that .
Club X ?
I'm from 81 to and was part of Global Hardcore Nation in feb '97 in Antwerp. My first hardcore party, was amazing indeed. But i also was happy to join last years Thunderdome in Utrecht after all these years which was my second time on a hardcore party at 42 years old and really wanted to feel the hardcore again of these generation! ❤
The origins are eighties
and you were born eighties ?
@@an1tvaw-kp5pm the nineties my dude
@@Zerocool-kb4ej X & Cherry tot de flikken het voor iedereen verkloot hadden ;-)
I’m a 48-year old British Metalhead who also listened to Hip Hop and Rave back in those days. Gabber (or Gabba) was totally my type of music. I was obsessed with it back then.
“Super nice!”
While at college, doing Music Tech, I got a metal head into gabba and hardcore 😂
46 year old from Rotterdam giving you the Gabber Handshake Brotha!
Me too, 47, Scottish. I was into death metal but started listening to a lot of this stuff when I was about 18. I still listen constantly to black and death metal, not much techno stuff these days but I still appreciate it. I think it has clear similarities to extreme metal. Dye Witness, Ruffneck, Ultrasonic...I do still enjoy TTF and the Shamen nowadays 😊
you did your homework really well. great content. gonna watch all your other "know your genre" video, too
Great watch, thanks for putting it together
I distinctly remember having a "Terrordome" cd with tracks over 250 bpm in around 94-96 one was labelled the fastest track in the world on the cd (or simliar) In the end i mellowed out with Members of Mayday CD's & Trance CD's like Reactivate but the artwork of the time on dance cd's beat any rock cd in a store always futuristic and eye catching. Although ridiculed slightly here Scooter and others of the time in Ireland (Ultra Sonic) were a big entry point for many into dance music. Good Vid.Good memories🖖
DJ Skinhead - Extreme Terror from Lord of the weed was my entrypoint with Gabber/Hardcore
P.s Holy shit, the vid is realy good. Good job man 👍👍👍
@florianfaber9799 a CD cover has an image with a nail trough the cut off ear? 🤓
Thank you for making this video!
Awesome video. I love music and partying, but have never been one to fret about genres. I really enjoyed all the 90s and 00s footage.
I enjoyed the video nice hearing all the classics always 🙂👍
Flashback to the early days :D Thank you for the vid
Thanks for the vid. I've used TR-909 on my PC in the late 90ies. Wasn't aware that it played such an important role.
Amazing video and very emotional / nostalgic to watch. Gabba will always hold a very special place in my heart.
Lekker man heerlijke docu echt genieten. Hardcore Will never die ❤. Greetings from de 🇳🇱.
Wat was dat een heerlijke tijd zonder al die camera’s op de mobieltjes. Mensen konden zich zelf zijn. Je ging voor het feest de muziek samen met al je gabbers. Lekker feesten daarna nog een afterparty mee pakken en dan soms nog met zijn alle op een parkeerplaats of ergens anders een beetje na stuiteren. Voor geen goud willen missen.
Hardcore will never die jij ook hier haha veel pyro's zijn ook gabber deze hier ook zin in volgende week naar megarave
Heerlijk oldschool feest heb zelf niet de jaren 90 meegemaakt maar ben in 2001 geboren maar voel me echt het jaren 90 style in me te hebben fuck new style
@@Mrdutchpyro ja man ben ook al een paar keer wat pyro s tegen gekomen in de comments op hardcore docu’s etc. Ja heb het gelukkig nog net meegekregen allemaal wel ver op het einde ben zelf in jaren 80 geboren. Lachen man stoken en hakkuh
Thank you!👍Awesome! EARLY GABBER HARDCORE👍🔊🔊
25k reached text-yellow-goal
Tracklist uploaded 🔊🎶
Very nice!!!..took me back to the early days...always liked HardTrance , HardHouse and Hardcore , but nowadays i like Hardstyle the most. I still have to go to Defqon one of these days ,it's on my bucketlist....
Thanks for that step back deep into my early discovery phase!
I got from Thunderdome Hardcore over Rave, Techno, Trance, Schranz, Drum&Bass, Dubstep now to Dramatical Sad Emotional Female Voice Deep Bass Dubstep Drops by Fytch in over 30 years.
Omg i was sitting in that same octopus ride in '96 at thunderdome....wauw that brings back so many good memories. Thanks for this trip back to memorie lane....Hardcore will never die.....never ever!!!!!!!!!
I was there as well.
But I gotta say a lot info in this vid isn’t correct in my mind 😂
@dirtysneakers like any actual true underground subculture I think no one will ever agree on any absolute definitions
Pure insanity....being a junglist, dnb DJ for 17 years...I do love going out to banging techno nights now and again...great documentary
Great to have you back and great video! Are you going to update earlier videos after all the things happened to harder style?
Thank you for this journey through the evolution of hardcore 🙏
Backward hakken definitely existed in the 90s!
True!
13:13 we typically call that music "old school hardcore" in the UK, and it is from around 92-94 before 4x4 hardcore and Jungle in like 95. Dates are off the top of my head though.
I loved the old school stuff. Acen - trip to the moon pt 2, anyone?
Yeah, Acen was amazing. I love the layered breakbeats. Another good one was Messiah.
@@TheCuttingBureau Yeah, true. That first prodigy album had the sound down, too.
Jungle was properly there by end of '93. You had Ratty doing "dark side" Jungle by end '93. Listen, e.g., to some of the sets by Fabio, Grooverider, Ratty, Ned Ryder from the Que Club @ NYE 93/94.
And it was already "Jungle Techno" by '92. Look up DJ Seduction's Fantazia sets from '92.
its hardcore techno
Great doc of hardcore history....a lot of memories goes up in my mind thank you❤
Thanks for creating this!
A very good documentary about the history of Gabba and you notice that the other genres were and are important according to history, but you also have to emphasize when you sort the genre, it can also be that they are even closer relatives in other genres are historically related because many people like to argue about how the genres are structured and what belongs to the genres because you have to explain again and again where the term edm comes from, that it is actually just a term for the entire electronic genre such as: house, trance, techno, hardcore (techno/edm), drum and bass (dnb)(jungle), dubstep, garage, breakbeat, trap (edm), bass, bounce, electro, synthwave or synthpop, vaporwave, electro, chiptune ( bitpop) , downtempo (chill-out, ambient, tip-hop, lo-fi beats) , electronica (idm, drill'n bass) and according to subgenre there is metal and rock in pop as well as in indi and folk and in hip hop and in R&B subgenres that come from EDM or were influenced by EDM and now by country because a few countries include a few other genres in EDM such as noise but also industrial or gothic
In the early 2000's you only had a couple genre's: Hardcore, Terror, Speedcore, early hardcore and Happy Hardcore (trash). Gabber is a culture and not a music genre.
@@valentijnrozeveld3773 For the first time gabba is a subgenre of hardcore (techno) and so it is also sorted into hardcore (techno) because if gabba was just a culture why does gabba have fusion genres such as hardcore rave then you have forgotten a few more genres around that 2000s were created
@@beck6505 I'm just telling you how it is over here in the Netherlands, especially 20-30 years ago. You want to call it Gabba that's you opinion. Also hardcore is not techno, it's it own genre but ofcourse you are allowed your own opinion on that as well. oh and a hardcore rave is just a hardcore party, a rave being a party (usually illegal)
@@valentijnrozeveld3773 Now you come with an opinion where you wanted to tell me that the gabba is not a subgenre then again hardcore rave was a subgenre of gabba and breakbeat hardcore and then to explain the word rave it was actually a word that the labels actually wanted to use as a coherent genre To largely summarize all electronic genres, the first subgenre that should be named like that was hardcore rave. Rave itself was seen as a synonym for illegal or where only techno is played and there is even more subgenre with the name rave namely nu-rave, future rave .dan again the genre name hardcore (techno) it is just written techno in commas but what is also written is edm to interpret it as an edm genre which you could get even more subgenre with the name hdm because it is also an umbrella term But where there's hardcore (techno/edm) in there, there's even more of all the other edm genres that are just hard
@@valentijnrozeveld3773 And as a question, do you actually know industrial hardcore, which was created before the 2000s, or early hardstyle, UK hardcore because you really don't know a lot about the subgenre

Those so called examples of Hard House, aren't Hard House tracks but where also called Hardcore. For Hard House music you should listen to Tony de Vit.
For me it all started with a Thunderdome 2 CD from a friend's brother. It didn't took long and Gabber/Hardcore Vinyls were piling up in my room. I was 16 back then, now i'm 46 and still have all my Rotterdam Records, Terror Trax and other Vinyls.
Completly I understand You 😂
Hakkuhhhhhhhhhh !!!!!
Alles naar klote!
Dope! I’m 46 Latino from LA. We had a Latin underground scene in the early 90’s with hardcore being a part of it. I just didn’t like the dance style. Most of us just banged our heads to the speaker walls. Headstrong!!!
Hardcore will never die!
Was Omar Santana part of the Hardcore genre?
yes! it is called NELA TV here on youtube - trip upon trip down memory lane!
Started in the mid 90s for me. Found gabber through UK hardcore. It's the goose pimples that I still get from the kick drum that let me know I'm not old just yet.
big up the Old Skool ravers
Wish all genres got such a great video. Really well done! You got the start right! That I know, the rest I learned here…
Nice attempt but sadly a bit convoluted. In the early days we didn't have all those genres of house music. We just had a few and they got invented along the way. I strongly dislike that you state that Marc 'invented' hardcore by just that track. That is too simple of a thought and therefore not true. The scene got inveted in different countries by different artists at the same time. That is where the beauty lies with the early genres: there is a lot of room for invention.
"early hardcore" imploded into itself in about 5/6 years around 1998 and the hardcore scene slowly re-invented itself from 2000 and upward and the genre stagnated into a horrible monotonous sound.
First time I heard a gabber kick was this track: th-cam.com/video/NVIYUQLxSWw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=VPP5cChV6VQMhi1v Tyree Cooper also liked to distort his 909s and 808 and then you have Mike Dunn, Steve Poindexter, Robert Armani and not to forget Cajmere
I said this once on an IG post and it was fun watching people 20-30 years younger than me trying to explain how a song wasn't Techno......lol. It used to be all Hardcore/Hardcore Techno when i started going to raves in 1990, and what they now have split into 2 million seperate genres, was all played under one roof, no seperate tents........okay may be a chill area, but not like now when you have to go to one specific spot to here only one genre of music. I think this is why so many oldschool people appreciate all forms of Hardcore and don't bash other genres, as we grew up listening to it all. Musical snobbery is hilarious, when we just enjoyed the music, making friends from all over the country or even world, with not one bit of fear of being assualted, it was just love for the scene, the music and the people. Those days will never come back imho, but we still have those memories. HTID!!!..........ETA, i just wish there was a bit more Bouncy Techno (Scott Brown) stuff added in there, as he had a lot of influence in Hardcore sceen, especially in Scotland and the Netherlands
Hardcore was never called Gabber back in the days because Gabber is the hardcore culture.. not a genre, at least not back then. Also, 3 steps ahead is not happy hardcore, happy hardcore was childfriendly television commercial crap.
Agree. Gabber is more people related and hardcore is the music genre
Exactly
I think this depends where one experiences it and who you ask. There’s all kinds of misnomers in music, especially in electronic. I think if you ask most people who experienced the 80s-90s dance music phenomenon, most people associate with the term ‘gabber,’ it’s not that big of a deal. As long as they were fortunate enough to enjoy it! It was a wonderful time! This documentary does make reference to the culture aspect of it as well.
@@1nfamousme210 It's the opposite though, i was underage during the 90's (classic and oldschool hardcore wasn't around during the 80's) but my older brothers weren't, i'd sneak in the first parties at 15 in 1999 and have been part of the Hardcore scene in the Netherlands ever since and never ever have i ever heard someone refer to as we call it oldschool or early as gabber. It's the newer generations that do it and especially outside of the Netherlands.
😂😂😂 got it
Nice i,m old n love it. Very informative and well crafted. I NEVER KNEW WHAT THE LAST TUNE WAS CALLED. A PERSONAL FAVOURITE CHEERS. PEACE N LOVE TO MY FELLOW RAVER,S:-)
Really nice workkkkk!
I bet if ukraine went into Russia playing Gabber there would be no more fighting 😂
Russian village boys
OMG!! 🙈🙈🙈
A very nice documentary.
For me personally a trip to the past.
One small thing that is not right is stepping backwards dancing.
I did this '93-'94 for the first time. Dancing in front of a mirror at 14 years old!😅
Please continue your Gabber journey.
Gabber ben je niet even maar heel je leven!!*
* 'You're not just a gabber for a moment, but your whole life!!'
It's all about passion, the beat, the rhythm, exploring sounds and the people...
thank you for a very informative video…i came from a UK Hard House background back in the mid 90s, starting as a DJ..then went thru many genres after that until i found my love in Progressive Tribal Tech House..but every now n then, i’d listen to Happy Hardcore n Hardbass to release my tensions..😅
Love this video! Very well put together 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽🔥🔥🔥
This is really neat to learn about the history of the music i love to DJ today. I discovered happy hardcore in 2012 and since then I've veen DJing the genre and forever loving it. Thanks for the history lesson ☺️
I've been loving the happy vibe since the summer of 97.
Nice!! Thx for sharing the evolution! 🤘🤘🔥🔥
Be prepared for the next video. You like Baguette?
I always say - "Do yoy love hardstyle, like i love it?" no mater what the subgenre. thanks for history rewiew. deep in youth
Very educational! I just learned like 5 new genres within gabber from this. Some of this stuff I never knew existed. Stuff like Psycore and Hi-tech have always been my favorites though.
Thanks for sharing the track list!
very cool, i learned new things today. thanks!
thank you, awesome documentary !!
Cheers from France !
🖤🏴☠🖤
What a cool video im 38 fell in love with hardcore when i 1st heard it around 8 years old, albeit its got a bit chit these days, i love that a lot of the techno djs are bringing the old sound back and sampling a lot of classic early stuff, very educational video, good job ❤
What a video, what a great way of telling the story. This is part of an '82 kid that really missed the boat but watched the show from the sideline. My journey started with a tape of my older brother labeled *Carf IF I find this tape in your room I KILL YOU!!!1
It contained one of the early Thunderdome albums with what I can recall Dreamteam in tha house and put it to the left, put it to the right from the Prophet. I was 10 and I was sold!
A few years later I got an Amiga500 for my birthday and a few months later at an amiga club day I got a little program called Protracker, one of the files was DjWeirdo-DjSim-GoGetBusy.mod and it was the kickstarter of a long-time/part-time hobby I still do nowdays.
This video feels like revisiting a part of my creative journey :)
Thank you for creating this, and love the track at the end, another great track by Weirdo
Excellent video! Memories! Those who know, know!
This is so good, can't wait to show it to friends. Thank you. Everyone should like and sub after this hard work.
what a GREAT video. me from early TERROR will love speedcore, frenchcore and doomcore forever.

I love how you break down different music styles. At 17:13, you mentioned "triplet," but it's more like the classic gallop pattern. Picture it like a speedy 16th note sequence with the first note missing because it lines up with the kick on the downbeat. This makes it a three-note pattern, leading to the "triplet" misunderstanding. Triplet would be stretching, for example, 3 16th notes to fit into the time of 4 16th notes.
Psytrance often throws in triplets too, sometimes switching from the gallop to triplets in the same song to keep things interesting. If someone wants to catch all these changes in one go, I usually suggest listening to Vini Vici's "Umtz Umtz." Not my favourite song, but it's the perfect illustration for psytrance rhythms.
Well done docu pretty spot on.
thanks loads for making this. :)
I'm 38 and just brought my first pair of air max. But I've been listening to the harder styles since like 2000. Its my favorite type of music. Thanks for this vid
haven't had the guts to buy them, i'm more a puma fan. how do you find them so far ?
@@JanElBrabo I went to the Nike store lol
@@blacsk8r666 i mean like, hows your experience, what are pro & con
You can hear how this branched into so many different styles of music.. blessed are the electronic music gods and those that are devoted to them🙏💖
Truly interesting broadcast - me personally HappyHardCore O'Skool & Jungle since 1999 - keep on ravin peeps
I grew up on Rave/Hardcore...
There was a direct flow of music between Scotland and Amsterdam during the emergence of the Gabber (variations of spelling) so respect to those in the gabber scene of that time and the artists pumping those crazy hard tunes. Not everyone got the gabba scene, but there were that many distinct genres emerging it was easy to find a sound you gelled with more than others... gabber was at the extreme end most of the time.
Right, that said I have to dispute something now. BPM.
Bpm is not percieved when over 200 beats, anything over 200(ish) just sounds like 100 bpm upward.
With very few exceptions these 'ultra fast' genres are actually slow, in fact the notion that a track can be 1000 is so stupid it is mind boggling, YES it is possible to have something moving at that pace if you really work at it, but if the kick is clocking in at 180bpm then that track is 180 bpm it doesnt matter if the hats are in 32nd, 64th or 128ths it is still a 180bpm track.
Lots of HipHop producers set their clocks to 180bpm when recording a 90bpm, but it is still 90bpm.
Likewise there is stuff from funk and jazz with high time division by drummers that would technically bump a track up from 70bpm to 240bpm if you wanted to be pedantic, but noone does.
The only genre that seems to consistently work at REAL high bpm seems to be modern psy and oldskool gabba, and that is because either the kick is tracking at those rates or because the bass (with psy) which is effectively a secondary kick at times is tracking. But even then given that we strugge to percieve a rhythm in excess of 200 it could also be argues that (for example) a 200bpm is just a 100bpm track with double time percussion.
I have heard tracks claiming to be over 300bpm, despite the fact sequencers rarely go higher than 300 (and many dont go that fast) to begin with.
Some tracks have one beat every four or eight bars FFS, how the hell can that be considered fast?
Yeah it sounds kool to have a track at 1,000,000,000 bpm and one day if this trend of exagerating BPM continues there will be one, but it just doesnt work like that.
Stop lying about the BPM producers, there is nothing wrong with 'slow' music :D
Ps. @Mindprinter . . . You missed the Japanese subgenres, they are basically emulating all the european subgenres but adding more musicality. Also you may want to make a distinction between industrial (post rave) and Industrial (post punk) at some point... there is actually a link between Industrial (post punk) and hardcore given that the makers through away the guitar and bought drum machines and synths, employing effects like distorton to degrade the sounds.
Thanks for the upload!!!
Thank you so much for this! I was around 16 or 17 in the late 90s when I discovered Hard-core Techno. I used to rummage albums from library and Thunderdome XXI i think was THE album that I found, put in cd player and was like W T F!!! It was my type of jam the first second I heard it. Also I was goofing around Impulse Tracker at the time and found many awesome remixes and from there the door opened. Thank you so much for uploading, I was dreaming to join these massive warehouse parties etc just to dance my ass off
